Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I'm a 31-year-old woman who recently starting having minor chest pains, difficult and rapid breathing, and slight numbness in left arm. I have been under a lot of stress lately, so I'm sure that is a huge factor. Could this be an early symptom of a heart condition?
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Stress is definitely a factor for mild chest pains and such stress related pains could point towards heart problems. Stress related anxiety and gastric disorders also could cause these symptoms. Please consult a physician to confirm the fact and to have correct diagnosis.
If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.
Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
